2.11.3 The application site is located in Flood Zone 1 which is at low
probability of flooding. In terms of drainage the application states that
foul sewage would be connected to the mains sewer with surface water
directed to a soakaway. Yorkshire Water and the Internal Drainage
Board have been consulted on these methods of drainage and raised
no objections. It is therefore considered that the drainage proposals
are acceptable.
2.12 Conclusion
2.13.1 The development of this site for the erection of one dwelling would be
considered acceptable in principle, despite the proposals not being in
accordance with Policy H2A, limited weight should be attached to the
non compliance with Policy H2A and significant weight should be
attached to the site being identified as a designated service village
capable of accommodating additional small scale development and the
proposals not causing harm to the local area in accordance with the
NPPF.
2.13.2 Having assessed the proposals against the relevant policies the
proposals are considered to be acceptable in respect of the design and
effect upon the character of the conservation area, flood risk, drainage,
climate change, impact on highways, residential amenity, nature
conservation and contamination.
2.13.2 The proposed developed is therefore considered to be contrary to the
provisions of the Development Plan however there are material
considerations as described above that are considered to be of
sufficient weight to outweigh this conflict and therefore planning
permission is recommended subject to conditions.
